# Drift: Fund The Drift Superteam Earn Creator Competition
## Summary
Proposal to allocate $8,250 from the Drift Foundation Grants Program to fund a creator competition on Superteam Earn celebrating the launch of B.E.T (Solana's first capital efficient prediction market). The competition included three bounty tracks (video, Twitter thread, trade ideas) plus a grand prize, each with tiered rewards.
## Market Data
- **Outcome:** Failed
- **Proposer:** proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2
- **Created:** 2024-08-27
- **Completed:** 2024-08-31
- **Prize Pool:** $8,250 in DRIFT tokens
- Grand prize: $3,000
- Three bounty tracks: $1,750 each (1st: $1,000, 2nd: $500, 3rd: $250)
## Significance
Represents an early futarchy-governed marketing/grants decision for a DeFi protocol. The failure suggests either insufficient community support for the spending, skepticism about ROI from creator competitions, or concerns about the B.E.T product itself. Notable as a test case for using futarchy to govern community engagement and marketing budgets rather than just technical or treasury decisions.

## Competitive Position
- **Futarchy validation**: Drift using MetaDAO's governance system is the strongest external validation signal — a major protocol choosing futarchy over traditional token voting for real treasury decisions.
- **Future leverage threat**: Drift listing META perps would directly compete with OmniPair for leverage demand. This is OmniPair's identified "key vulnerability" — the moat is temporary.
